S4 reboots on resume

Hello List.

I tested S4 (pmdisk) with 2.6.1-mm2. After approximately 10 minutes the computer powered off. When i resume it will reboot after reading the pages from swap and force a journal recovering. Is there a patch i can try? This happened with 2.6.x kernel before too.

Regards,

Thus wrote Dirk Meul:

If you use X, don't.
Alternatively, you can try Nigel's patches, read swsusp.sf.net for more info.

Hi!

Try these:

        swsusp/S3 tricks
        ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Pavel Machek <[email protected]>

If you want to trick swsusp/S3 into working, you might want to try:

* go with minimal config, turn off drivers like USB, AGP you don't really need

* use ext2. At least it has working fsck. [If something seemes to go wrong, force fsck when you have a chance]

* turn off modules

* use vga text console, shut down X. [If you really want X, you might want to try vesafb later]

* try running as few processes as possible, preferably go to single user mode.

* due to video issues, swsusp should be easier to get working than S3. Try that first.

When you make it work, try to find out what exactly was it that broke suspend, and preferably fix that.

Also try using swsusp, not pmdisk.

for the beginners in here: which one is swsusp, which one is pmdisk? I'm using a suse 2.6 kernel.
echo 4 > /proc/acpi/sleep works for me.

I tried S4 on my Dell 600m. It seemed to suspend ok, and when I pressed the power button, the power light came on, but not much else. Looking at this table it suggests a kernel parameter resume=/dev/hdaX.

What should I use for X?

Actually that is a link to an implementation thats not currently in the kernel (Although I do think is better and I use it myself ;-)

Yes, but the page pointed to compares the three implementations and how they're activated (among other things).

I know, and it does that very well, I've already seen that comparison. I mentioned that with response to the
"... *blush* well, i could have figured this one out by myself. ..." comment.
Like I said in my post, and I think most everyone on the swsusp list agrees we think that your version is currently the leading one. And while we are on it, it is the only one for 2.4 ;-)
